Our favourite message from clinical nutritionist, Jessica Sepel, of wildly popular JS Health is that food should never be a punishment.

Stop punishing yourself through food.It’s the mantra Jess lives by and shares with her clients and fans through her booming social media and website as she urges poeple to reset their relationships to food. It’s also a philosophy that she chatted about for our 9Honey Kitchen foodie podcast ‘What the F is for Dinner’. Take a listen below (and also snag her recipe for the healthiest pizza you can eat).

But today, she’s going one step further and proving that delicious treats and gorgeous food can be both mouth-watering and good for you, nourishing your body and your soul. You don’t need to deprive yourself, you just need to rethink your selection of treats.

"It doesn’t matter how many greens you eat, if you’re stressed and have a really negative relationship with food, you’re never going to look and feel your best. So, you’re never really going to be living the true healthy life," Jess told 9Honey Kitchen.

With that in mind, Jess has shared a sneaky, easy and damned delicious video recipe (watch it above) to start your week off right, and we promise will make your day… after all, it’s a vegan peanut butter bar that you can snack on when you’d usually reach for a chocolate bar, but there’s not guilt.

Just try not to eat the whole batch at once.

It takes just 10 minutes minutes to make and it’ll set you in good stead for a week of snacking right. Recipe below, video How To above. Go on, nourish yourself, without depriving yourself. We dare you to eat a treat and enjoy it without worrying about how ‘bad you’ve been’. After all, food should be joyful as far as 9Honey Kitchen is concerned. And this recipe is the perfect place to start.
